About Baron Bruno

I am a professional who co-manages a residential and commercial real estate team (Keller Williams - Marina Del Rey) who loves meeting people, working hard, having fun and traveling (just like you!).

I grew up in Scottsdale, AZ and spent time in San Francisco, New York City, Copenhagen, Denmark, and Costa Rica.

I love wine and beer tastings, music festivals, checking out new places, and listening to plenty of indie and 80s alternative music.

Baron Bruno purchased this condo in 2000

Why Baron Bruno chose Venice

This property is where I want to retire. It's been a life long dream for me to have a place on the beach where I can enjoy wonderful energy, fresh air, and the magic of nature, and I want others to be able to enjoy this place as well.

Too many places on/near the beach are empty with 'investors' or owners who never understand the amazing gem they have - AND can share with others!

I wanted something incredibly convenient since we love walking, meeting people, shooting pool, drinking beer and devouring the tasty burgers at Hinano (the 'locals' bar, a short walk away).

Yes, there are plenty of other choices, but what makes this place extra unique is that I know the area very well, and can give you ideas, suggestions, help make reservations, and have the fridge and cupboard stocked with goodies before you get here.

I want you to spend time 'hanging out' having fun, so I am always be available to help you figure out how to turn on the TV, or tell you the best local sushi bars (Hama) or how to navigate your way around this massive metropolitan area (if you want to do a fun drive up the coast to Malibu for celebrity sight-seeing, see the stars on Hollywood Blvd, check out the old Farmer's Market and Grove outdoor shopping mall, try a famous Pink's Hot Dog, visit the Hollywood sign and Griffith Observatory, or spend the day at the Getty Museum.

It's all right here and we'll help you make the planning easier - and more rewarding.

What makes this condo unique

See my answer above.

I will be your private concierge.

Tell me what you want to have in the fridge before you arrive, and we'll stock it for you! (No more having to go to the grocery store before you arrive.)

No one lives in the condo above the unit, and the owners in the next building are also rarely there. It's seriously like having your own private beach and building. I love it ... and hope you will too!

This place seriously has just about everything within walking distance. If you have any questions, just shoot me an email. I manage a local real residential and commercial real estate team, so I have a LOT of resources available for you!

(Let me know if you're interested in possibly doing a long term rental or might consider making a property purchase....I can arrange private showings and send you available properties based on your budget, timing and goals.)

If you have any other special requests, call or text me 424.465.3225. I will tell you about the best things to do and places to go in the LA area, and help get this place stocked up and ready for your arrival! See you soon! Paradise awaits. : )

GREAT STAY! PERFECT LOCATION!

This property could not be in a better location. Right on the beach! And close to everything you could possibly need or want to see! Plus an easy drive to the airport.

Bruno's place is very comfortable and very well furnished with everything you need plus more. The condo is easy to access and has a garage so you do not have to worry about finding a parking spot.....extremely convenient for this popular area. We could not have asked for a better place to stay and we highly recommend this property.

A great condo right on a very quiet beach.

This was a great condo for our family of two adults and two kids. The beach felt almost private during the week and even at its busiest it was still very not very crowded. A short walk down to a host of Venice beach restaurants, too. Owner was very responsive as well. Great trip.

Owner's Response: So happy you had such a great time enjoying the epic location and all the amenities and extra touches that made your trip so special. Thank you for your kind words and letting me know how the property exceeded your expectations.
Looking forward to seeing you again soon! Even more surprise perks, toys, and memories! : )
THANK YOU!

Access to beach and ocean view are awesome!

This location was perfect for our family of 5. We loved being able to walk right out the front door and be on the beach or sitting on the balcony while the kids played in the sand. It was nice to have beach chairs, volleyball, kite, beach towels and boogie boards available for use. Owner was very responsive to texts and overall accommodating.

Outstanding Vacation Rental Right on the Beach!

I thought I wrote this review already, but when I looked this place up again to send my friend a referral link, I realized I hadn't. This place was perfect for our family! The owner is a fantastic communicator and made sure that we were all set. Upon arrival, there was a gift basket for us and a note making us feel very welcome. It has a fantastic view of the ocean out the floor to ceiling window of the great room. I loved the layout. We slept peacefully in the comfortable beds with the cool ocean breeze blowing through the windows. The place is right on the sand, and it's a beautifully clean beach. There were other people around, but not many; definitely not crowded. The place was stocked with a surf board, a skimboard, 2 brand new beach cruisers and many other things to have fun at the beach! We also went to Universal Studios one of the days, and it didn't take long to drive there. We loved walking down to Venice Beach where there are restaurants and a fun boardwalk. My kids loved the skate park there. Most of our time, though, was spent right there, out the front door, on the beach! Thank you for a fabulous stay last year Baron! We have nothing but fantastic memories of our best family vacation ever! I can't recommend your place highly enough. Thank you! The Burge Family from Utah

Amazing stay!!

My daughter and I stayed here for a long weekend and loved it and plan on returning in the future! Everything was just as described and was very comfortable. Actually the pictures don't do it justice. We did have a little issue with the keypad lock, but that was probably user error. :-) If you need to get into the side area where the beach toys and trash can are, don't try to open the gate on the beach side, it's very hard to open. We realized on our last day that it was easier to get to it from the door inside the garage area. We used the bikes and rode down to Venice for breakfast, it was awesome. We were at lunch and Leonardo DiCaprio came in and sat at the table next to us. We really tried not to stare! Overall it was a great mother/daughter time and can't wait to do it again. Thanks Baron!!

Owner's Response: So glad you had fun. I'm happy to report that that rusty gate is getting fixed (hooray!), but having those bikes (for FREE!) must have been so much fun!
Next time you can invite Leo and his buddies for a beach party at my place! Ha!
See you again soon! Thank you!
